Independent hardware encryption and hardware kernel, providing 8Gbps IPSec data encryption processing power without increasing the investment, 6000 IPSec tunnel, 18000 L2TP tunnel and 4000 GRE tunnels. High-performance encryption capabilities and a large capacity can meet a variety of large tunnel encryption gateway requirements and ensure user data security in the WAN transportation

Intelligent service bandwidth management

WAN carries an important range of business traffic. Due to the presence of WAN high convergence ratio itself, congestion, delay, packet loss and other characteristics, how to maximize the use of network bandwidth resources in such an environment, improving system transmission reliability, is an important issue for WAN equipment. H3C leverages years of enterprise network experience, and has accumulated numerous requirements for enterprise network bandwidth applications, and formed a complete set of service bandwidth management mechanisms after analysis and research.

Including:

Active/Standby Network Bandwidth Management: in case of the resource constraints of main network connection, a portion of the data traffic re-routing to the backup network for data transmission according to pre defined routing policy. The idle resources can be fully utilized up to100%.

UCMP (Unequal Cost Multipath) intelligent load sharing: UCMP is different from traditional ECMP. Its greatest feature is the use of weights to distinguish the use of bandwidth, making two different bandwidths egress tunnels to bear different data traffic flows according to the different bandwidth.

Bandwidth reservation and resources sharing: the network can be divided into certain exclusive bandwidths for each department to ensure business-critical QoS, with the remaining bandwidth shared, to meet unexpected traffic demands.

Improve bandwidth utilization with hierarchical CAR: Multi-level CAR processing techniques, through multi-level processing sees bandwidth re-allocation, bandwidth utilization increase dramatically.

Advanced hierarchical queuing scheduling HQoS (Hierarchical Quality of Service): With the expansion of user numbers, increase of service types, network devices cannot only distinguish traffic, but are also capable of handling multiple users, a variety of services, a variety of flows and other transport objects for unified management and hierarchical scheduling. Obviously, it is difficult to achieve these requirements via traditional QoS technology. HQoS adopts the multi-layer scheduling queues, such as physical level, logical level, application or service level, and other scheduling levels. Each level can use the different features for traffic management to achieve multi-level traffic management, which can better help carriers to achieve multi-user, multi- service management.

Comprehensive network security

SR6602-X builds a variety of security features to provide users with a full range of network security:

Comprehensive firewall features: support packet filtering firewall, stateful inspection firewall, packet filtering various attacks, and the provision of a log filter. Specific ACL acceleration algorithm eliminates firewall performance degradation by applying the number of ACL filtering rules.

Comprehensive built-in means anti-attack measures.

Supports a variety of ARP anti-attack techniques, such as: ARP rate-limit, ARP DHCPR security authentication, ARP authorization, ARP active acknowledgment, source MAC consistency check and protection and more, which can be a good protection mechanism against rampant ARP attacks within the network, ensure network stability.

Single-packet attack protection: Effective protection against Fraggle, ICMP Redirect, ICMP Unreachable, LAND, Large ICMP, Route Record, Smurf, Source Route, TCP Flag, Tracert, WinNuke single-packet attacks and other Single-packet attacks.

Scanning attack protection: the attacker uses the network scanning tools to scan host addresses or ports, detection of the target system network topology and the type of service is enabled on the target system to prepare for further intrusion.

Flooding attack protection: effectively prevents SYN Flood attacks, ICMP Flood attack, and UDP Flood.

Carrier-class reliability design

SR6602-X adheres to the high-end design concept to provide users with comprehensive reliability guarantee: in hardware, providing hot swappable redundant power supplies, with AC or DC power input, and ensuring operation in case of single power failure.
